Seance was a Swedish death metal band. The band was formed in March 1990 with the fusion of two local Linköping bands Orchriste and Total Death, both which were formed in early 1987. They split up after two albums ("Fornever Laid To Rest" and "Saltrubbed Eyes") in 1998. The second album is considered a swedish death metal classic. Most band members were also involved in band Satanic Slaughter and Witchery. Patrick Jensen later joined the band The Haunted.
